Cisco Credentials
Strategic Product Design (APD1)
2024
In an emerging world in which all our personal documents will be digital, Cisco Credentials offers the possibility to store the access keys to these credentials offline and physically separated from your smartphone or laptop to increase cyber security and reduce the risk of data theft. The Lock stores the keys to everyday credentials like an ID or Driver’s License, while the Vault at home contains the keys to the most vulnerable credentials, like a Social Security Number or Health Records. After pairing the Lock or the Vault to a phone, the devices snap open and gives access to its Credentials. By closing the device, a transaction is approved and the Lock and Vault go back into an offline state.
